I don't feel that who the pope is makes that much difference. As far as what the pope should do , I have many suggestions. First, no statements. Most Survivors, myself included feel very cynical about empty statements that Church officials don't act upon anyway .

Real actions are what's really needed. By actions , I mean Financial compensation, Paid therapy, along with paid tuition and job training and placement.

Things like empty statements and self serving apologies add to Survivors hurt, along with taking away our narratives. Abuse affects Survivors in a variety of ways that are very real .Real actions like I listed above are what's needed Claude Leboeuf
